A Quick Comment from Genesis

In the first couple of chapters is a word-play:

Adam and Eve were naked (arom) before their sin.
The serpent was crafty (arum).
Adam and Eve realized they were naked (erom) after their sin.

In the shower, without clothes on, you're naked (arom - nude).
In the front lawn, without clothes on, you're naked (erom - exposed, vulnerable).
